yes yes, I've used in a few mixes ;D
I had to replace a faulty diode though which improved the frequency response and ratio behavior.
At the moment I'm collecting information for a small (and ambitious) console design and this threat has great info to start with
Just found that Crest Audio has schematics on their site too.
The V12 console is quite interesting from a circuit point of view as it makes extensive use of DC servos to avoid DC blocking capacitors in the signal chain.
